Do you build from sources, or is 0.137 available as a binary package already?

If you build from sources you can use the --disable-gkr configure flag
to get rid of that dependency.

But the only reason I know that is that I run "configure --help" quite often
because Heinrich has been changing the flags fairly often lately.

I'm not about to complain, though, because he is rapidly adding nice features
and is very quick to fix bugs when we report them.  Suggestions/improvements
for (eternally inadequate) documentation are welcomed by any open-source
project, naturally!
